    I lived in Gravesend in the 1950s/60s and remember the market really well but it is only the building that is the same. We had a guy called Strong and he was a famous market salesman in that market and many more in the county. He would be there with his big removal truck, selling his wares from the back of the truck, he wouls shout and yell and sell loads of cheap stuff, there was always a crowd around Strongy's truck. Every Saturday mum would take me and my brother off to the market but in summer we preferred the Lido where we would all meet, a whole gang of us and spend all afternoon there. I have fond memories of that town but I salied away on my first ship in 1969 and never went back, my dad had to move to Southampton with his job, so I came back from one trip at sea to find myself going home to Southampton. Growing in and around Gravesend was agreat time for me.

      Gravesend has its very nice parts in town and by the riverside and then again Kent is the garden of England.

      I think Bluewater finished off the businesses in Gravesend and surrounding areas… or what do you think

    Dreadful market, mostly empty and full of over priced rubbish. The council ruined the market. Hence why this video shows no public in the place....
